Hi @outlander

I know what it feels like when you are overwhelmed and don’t even know why. 

This won’t help get through tonight but it might help later. I’ve done a few in the last few weeks and it’s helped heaps. It’s kind of like journaling but with way less emotion because you do it quickly. It’s helped me to see where all the overwhelming parts are and then you get a chance to prioritise and work on them. I’ve mostly been doing it for appointments but it’s helped just being able to see a bit more clearly. I’m not sure when your headspace appointment is but it might help you talk about things. 

Today I was getting really stressed about things and I made one to take to my psych appointment next week. It helped to dump everything in an easy way. Now I have something to talk through. I don’t tend to get as caught up with things doing it this way and it helps me work out what is really causing my distress and stress. I hope this helps.
